Toast the solar eclipse with these 13 libations

York County, PA, won't get the full show, but will still be treated to an amazing
partial solar eclipse on August 21.

We think that's worthy of celebration, so we've
compiled a list of craft beverages from our Good Libations Trails that are perfect
for toasting this heavenly happening. (Note: Please check on availability with individual locations).

This blended white wine features White Riesling,
Scheurebe and Kerner and smells of apple, peach and pear. According to Naylor,
it's "very food friendly." We also think it's a perfect pairing for a solar
eclipse.

If
you're really into astronomy, then the Galaxy Flight is a must. The brewers at
Tattered Flag are hosting a competition to see who brews the best beer with
galaxy hops. You can try the flight, then vote on your favorite! The V20: Dunk-Galaxy dunkelweizen and V17:
Shagalaxy American IPA are already on tap, too!

Nothing
says touch the sky more than wine made by two pilots. There are two Flyboy Reds
to try, a 2012 semi-dry blush and a 2011 sweet red. Both are made with
Chambourcin grapes. Given the sky theme, the High-Flying White and Tailspin
Blueberry would also make for fitting choices.

Considering
the eclipse will cast an eerie mid-afternoon twilight across the land, some
people might think it's a little spooky. In that case, consider the Dark, Dank
and Ominous Black IPA from Warehouse Gourmet. It features hints of chocolate,
grapefruit and "dank, hemp-like aroma," according to the Hanover brewery.
